Interesting essay on “To Live snd Die in LA” and how much it went against the grain of feel-good 80s movies… https://collider.com/william-friedkin-to-live-and-die-in-la/

When I wrote “A Long Time” I was living in the heart of the old City of Canterbury. I used to “walk out in the evenings, through the dark Medieval streets” after dinner. There was often nobody around and I connected with the hundreds, probably thousands of years of human existence wandering those very same spaces. This helped me to come to terms with the various instances of loss I experienced at this time in my life and the song is a mixture of dreams, memories, reflections....

We recorded the video in the Theatre Royal in Margate, the same venue as “Whitstable Beach”. My daughter Violet is singing backing vocals which makes me particularly happy with this video.

Prog Award winner Jack Hues premieres the video his latest single, A Long Time. Watch it here...

Gearing up for the release of a new video tomorrow! will premier it so go to their wonderful site to watch. Entitled “A Long Time”, it comes from the heart to the heart... hope you enjoy it.

“It is in this kind of meaninglessness that we come to the profoundest meaning.”

Alan Watts on the universe and our search for meaning:

Wishing everybody who has boarded the train a very Happy New Year! Thank you for your words of love and enthusiasm. I have a new song and video from the album on the way for around 10th January so stay on board and keep spreading the word x

“Whitstable Beach”, my first ever solo release and the first track from my forthcoming solo album, has had such a great response from you guys that I’d like to give you an early Christmas present. On Tuesday we are going to release another track from the album called “Winter”. I have assembled some visuals to go with it from footage that my late wife Melanie shot for a performance of Franz Schubert’s “Winterreisse”. My song is indebted to Schubert’s masterpiece in many ways and it seems fitting to combine the song and images. Certainly not a conventional “Christmas single”, but something for those who might want to explore the bleak mid-Winter. Look out for it here on my page...
